Item Details
Stationery designed for children was a popular birthday gift in the 1930’s and 1940’s (especially from grandparents or great aunts) A number of the charming sets of stationery with literary themes were produced by the publishers of children’s books at that time. What better way to encourage that ever so important etiquette skill-- writing the thank you note.
There is no company name printed on this set of MOTHER GOOSE NOTES. Stamped on the bottom is “8851” and “12 sheets /12 envelopes”. The stationery box is approximately 4” x 6” x 1”. It is made of heavy card covered with white paper that has images from the stationery--“Mary had a Little Lamb” and “The Three Wise Men of Gotham”--printed in orange and green. Complete sets of the two 3 ½” x 5 ½” folded notepaper designs remain in the box. Interestingly, the second set has images from the nursery rhyme, “Ding Dong Dell Pussy in the Well” rather than the “The Three Wise Men of Gotham”. Eleven of the twelve envelopes also remain. The envelopes still have their original paper band printed “Mother Goose Notes” in orange Art Deco style.
The set is in very good condition although the paper has toned a bit through the years. Please examine the photos and feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
